Hello all,
This is a long explanation of a problem but I wanted to get some feedback on
an issue I am having with my Installation of the Oracle.pm module. I am
running a Windows 2000 machine that has an installation of perl that has
been put on by the product Interwoven. I tried to install the Oracle.pm
module on this machine but was unable to do so. I received makefile errors,
c library errors, and many other errors that made it impossible for me to
install it. So, after talking to many people in this user group, I
downloaded ActiveState perl and successfully installed it on my machine
that does not have Interwoven and I was then able to install the Oracle.pm
module with no problems.
Ok, sorry for the long explanation but here is the question, I would like to
install activeState on the machine that is running Interwoven. This will in
turn put two different installations of perl on the machine. I noticed when
I installed the oracle.pm module using ActiveState on my machine, it put the
modules in its own directory structure. I need to have the installation of
the Oracle.pm module to be able to be seen from the old perl installation
that has its own DBI and DBD folders in the perl environment. So the
question is, will the installation of Oracle.pm module using activestates
perl be able to be seen and called from perl processes where the machine is
most likely set to look at the Interwoven perl? Also, if installing using
Activestates, what are the necessary things that I will need to remove if
the installation goes bad? Any help or suggestions on this would be greatly
appreciated.
Thanks,
Bob Reuss
